OT twitter help needed. Everytime I open up twitter on my phone, I discover my account had followed another 10-50 accounts I did not actually follow. It's crazy. I unfollow them all, and the next time I log in, new ones are there. I've changed my password 6 times, and this is still happening. Any ideas???

You need to look at what apps have been allowed access and disallow any that you don't recognize and know what they are for then change your password again. |

I haven't looked up the definitions yet but definitely grew up with snirt (a combination of snow and dirt). On the prairie the wind blows so strong. Sometimes when it snows, dirt gets picked up by the wind and mixes it up with the driving snow. Not pretty.  I see now that some people define it as including snow that has been shoveled or plowed and has dirt in it. That's not what I remember calling it in North Dakota where I grew up. It's not a word I've heard used since I moved to the East Coast decades ago. |

Here is the happy story for the day. About 8 months ago there was a gray long haired tabby cat wandering the neighborhood. Very stand offish. He seemed to be lost but was fending for himself. Some people in the neighborhood would feed him but he did not want to make any attachments to humans and he would not let you get close to pet him. A couple months ago I went out the front door and there he sat on the wicker chair in the entry area between the house and garage. He looked at me and meowed. I was adopted. I started caring for him and he got along well with the two cats that lived in the garage. I finally decided he needed to see the vet when he seemed to have some respiratory issues. As I chatted with the vet we checked for a microchip and low and behold – he had a chip. After phone calls and waiting the owner was located – in Hawaii!!! The owner had once lived in an area about a mile from my house. Friends were supposed to care for the cat while she made arrangements to have him sent to Hawaii but he ran away from where he was staying. Had a great conversation with the owner and I will take care of “Big Boy” until he is well and can be sent home to his owner. When she realized I would help her get him back there were tears. I told her I would take care of him and it didn’t make sense to send him back to the people who lost him to begin with. Anyway, it will mean some vet visits and paperwork and taking him to the airport for transport but he will finally get back to his family. It was really a good feeling to wish each other a “Merry Christmas”. I actually have a credit with Alaska Air and enough miles to get myself a ticket to Hawaii. Maybe Big Boy will have a personal escort. This has nothing to do with Adam other than he has said he did not like cats. He should rethink that. They are survivors. Just like Adam. What a great story. You should be on one of those animal rescue shows. |

Do I have to look at the settings of each app individually? |
